That Part Of The Brighton Public House Contained Within Buchanan Road The Brighton Public House

The Brighton Public House, located at 127 Brighton Street in Egremont, is a public house built in 1886. It features coursed and roughly tooled rubble with dressings on the front, while the rest is brick. The roof is made of alternating grey and purple slates, with green slates on the corner turret. The building has a plan that includes two rooms served from a single central bar and displays markedly asymmetrical Gothic Revival elevations facing Brighton Street and Buchanan Road, highlighted by a tall corner turret.

The structure rises three storeys, with the turret being polygonal and crenellated, topped with a slate spire and featuring varied Gothic windows on all floors. On Brighton Street, the principal entrance is located in the third of four bays, featuring a doorway with intricately carved foliage on the capitals and lintel frieze, as well as on the spandrels of the large corbels that support the first-floor canted oriel. The windows in the first three bays are arranged in a 1:2:1 lancet pattern, with a pierced parapet above. These bays are topped with steep gables that have pendant finials supporting seated griffins. The upper floors have paired lancets, with those on the first floor featuring hoodmoulds and a connecting string. The ground floor of bay one has a shallow three-window design, while the fourth bay resembles the others but lacks second-floor windows and a gable.

On Buchanan Road, the building presents three bays, with the center forming a three-window entrance wing. The upper floors have pointed arched windows, with the first floor featuring shafted windows. The deeply recessed doorway is under a moulded arch and has panelled double doors, flanked by two windows on the left. The left-hand bay is shallow, while the right side features a canted and crenellated storeyed bay with a 1:2:1 window arrangement, similar to those on the turret. The stone coping runs throughout the building, and several upper floor windows are fitted with sash frames. The interior has been altered but retains glass in the porch that represents Summer and Spring, created by S Evans & Son.
